Title: Method and apparatus for stretching bread dough and the like
Inventor: HAYASHI TORAHIKO
IPC: A21C1/08
Filed: 1996-05-01
Granted: 2000-04-25
Abstract: In the prior-art bread-dough stretching method, a shearing stress was directly imparted to the bread dough by opposing rollers. This method broke the gluten structure in the bread dough, so that the dough lost elasticity and could not contain foam-like fermented gas. The present invention intends to overcome this inferior quality bread dough. The present invention has a rotating member having a plurality of planetary rollers that revolve along a circular orbit and a conveying device positioned below the rotating member spaced apart from the member to extend the bread dough in the space.      Each of the planetary rollers is rotatably supported by a shaft and the conveying device has a plurality of rollers positioned opposite the planetary rollers. The space gradually decreases from the inlet to the outlet of the conveying device.

Title: Method of packing of large-sized items and device for its realization
Inventor: MILBERT YEFIM
IPC: B65D6/24
Filed: 1996-05-28
Granted: 1999-07-20
Abstract: A Universal Method for packing large sized items and the device for its implementation have been developed to ensure packing the items of any sizes and shapes and to reduce the packing cost through crate elements repeated usage. The drawings of the device and the technology of the method are proved in 10 minutes. The device is a set of metal elements. Depending on the size and shape of the packed item the necessary elements are chosen of the set. To speed up packing and unpacking these necessary elements are assembled in unit assemblies that are used many times. Then the crate sized as needed is assembled of unit assemblies. The bottom of the crate is attached to the lower part of the item. It takes less than 2 hours to pack large sized items. In order to ship the crate back to manufacturer unit assemblies are placed on the bottom of the crate, then a lid is adjusted on the top and shields are adjusted on all 4 sides. If while improving the construction of the item its width,length or height are being changed then the change of definite elements of unit assemblies will ensure their usage in future.

Abstract: A stereo camera optimally corrects a parallax despite a photographing distance. Lens boards of right and left photographing lenses are mounted with slide guides for obliquely feeding in an inter-optical axis distance approaching direction as the lens boards are fed. When a focusing knob is rotated, the photographing lenses and a finder lens are integrally advanced or retracted in response to the rotating direction of a cam shaft. The slide guides are so disposed that the right and left visual fields are brought into agreement at a close distance at the close distance photographing and the right and left visual fields are brought into agreement at the close distance as compared with the focal distance at the time of remote distance photo-graphing. Accordingly, the unnatural of the remote or close distance feeling generated by the influence of the close distance subject at the human collimation at the time of remote distance photographing, and ideal stereo effect is obtained at all the photographing distances.

IPC: G06T11/80
Filed: 1996-03-22
Granted: 2000-10-24
Abstract: A method and apparatus for creating a curve to be displayed on an output device operates to interactively and directly specify the curve from input signals generated by an input device in response to control by a user. An apparatus may include an input device having a pointer for inputting points along a path-defined curve specified directly (using actual input points intended to be approximately on the curve) by a user. A processor outputs to an output device certain rendering data for rendering an image of the curve in real time for feeding back to a user. The user may augment (edit, extend) the curve by moving the pointer to add input points to the curve, based on the image fed back. The apparatus and method map non-linear coefficients of dependent control variables onto "building variables" selected to combine in linear combinations to replace the non-linear coefficients. When new inputs are added, building variables are linearly transformed to new values, rather than being recalculated from original non-linear summation terms. The curve is rendered on an output device and fed back immediately to a user in real time as the user adapts the curve displayed by moving the pointer to add inputs.

Abstract: Automated means for hydrating contact lenses. A first robotic assembly transports a first hydration carrier to a first rotary transfer device. The first rotary transfer device transfers the carrier to a second robotic assembly that immerses the carrier in a hydration bath. Each lens is transferred from a respective lens mold to a lens transfer means during the bath. The second robotic assembly transfers the carrier to a second rotary transfer device that rotates and transfers the carrier to a third robotic assembly. The third robotic assembly removes the lens molds and lens mold carrier from the lens transfer means. The lenses are transported with the lens transfer means and assembled with a hydration base member to form a second hydration carrier. After subjecting the lenses to extraction processing, the lens transfer means is dis-assembled from the hydration base member to provide hydrated lenses in a concave lens holding means.

Inventor: WALDNER CLARENCE
IPC: F28G1/08

Granted: 2003-05-13
Abstract: A furnace heat exchanger tube cleaning apparatus is described. The furnace comprises a combustion chamber for generating heated gases including combustion products, a water jacket containing a liquid to be heated and including heat exchanger tubes passing therethrough and a flue for discharge of the combustion products. In operation, the heated gases including combustion products flow from the combustion chamber along the heat exchanger tubes to the flue.  As the heated gases pass along the heat exchanger tubes, heat from the heated gases is transferred to the liquid in the container, thereby heating the liquid. The efficiency of heat transfer is increased by helical flights arranged to depend downward into the respective heat exchanger tubes from a support structure. Specifically, the flights create turbulence in the flow of the heated gases, thereby improving heat transfer.    However, over time, soot and other combustion products deposit along the heat exchanger tubes, which will decrease heat transfer efficiency. In this arrangement, the heat exchanger tubes can be cleaned by raising and lowering the support structure such that the flights scrape and clean the heat exchanger tubes.

Granted: 2006-09-19
Abstract: The present invention is a device and a method for boring a perfusion channel into the myocardial tissue of a patient. Structurally, the present invention includes a positioning catheter and a cutting catheter. The positioning catheter is formed with an inflation lumen and a deployment lumen and has an inflatable balloon mounted at its distal end. The cutting catheter has a sharpened distal end and is advanceable through the deployment lumen of the positioning catheter. Advancement of the cutting catheter through the deployment lumen causes the distal end of the cutting catheter to be directed radially outward from the positioning catheter. In use, the positioning catheter is positioned within a target vessel. The inflatable balloon is then expanded to anchor the distal end of the positioning catheter.      The cutting catheter is then advanced through the deployment lumen, projecting the distal end of the cutting catheter radially outward from the positioning catheter, boring a perfusion channel in the tissue adjacent to the target vessel.
